Synopsis

In this third and final volume of the Corellian  trilogy, Han and Luke lead the Alliance in a mad scramble against the Selonian rebels for control of the planetary technology.

When a loyalist ship approaching Selonia is blasted out of space, Han Solo quickly realizes that rebel forces are turning planetary repulsors into weapons of immense destruction. Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian manage to discover the terrifying secret of Centerpoint Station. It is the infamous Starbuster itself, and its next programmed nova, hard-wired in, is set to annihilate a chosen star, its inhabited worlds, and millions of innocent lives. There's only one way to stop it: blow up the station. But as a massive rebel fleet closes in on Centerpoint, Han, Luke, and their friends will discover time is running out.

Then the true leaders of the rebellion reveal their identities and issue their final ultimatum: The New Republic must withdraw all claim to power over the entire Corellian sector. With the future of Corellian freedom at stake, Han and those loyal to the Republic must somehow resist. But how can they possibly stop the deadliest weapon the galaxy has ever known?

What an epic finale! This is what sagas such as Star Wars are all about! Even though, in a good-versus-evil story, you know who will win from the get-go, this was still a sweeping ending!

Goodreads review by Scott on August 27, 2015

Roger MacBride Allen's Corellian Trilogy had a promising start with his first book, "Ambush at Corellia". It was exciting, well-paced, and did an excellent job setting up the characters and events. The second book in the series, "Assault at Selonia" was slightly less-than-stellar, only because it su......more

I own this book. This is the finale to The Corellian Trilogy, and what a finale it was. Not only did we get to see what happened to the Human League, and how the dream team of the Solos, Luke, Lando and their allies fought for the Corellian system, I think we really got to know the characters more......more

For 2020, I decided to reread (in publication order) all the Bantam-era Star Wars books that were released between 1991 and 1999; that shakes out to 38 adult novels and 5 anthologies of short stories & novellas. This week’s focus: Showdown at Centerpoint by Roger MacBride Allen. SOME HISTORY: October 1......more

Goodreads review by Adam on June 08, 2024

This book is a perfect 3.5 stars. It's enjoyable and well written, but it has some flaws. My biggest problems are that by the end of this trilogy, we still don't have a whole lot of answers. Some mysteries are meant to be left as such, but to me, the biggest plot point from these three books is left......more
